People really thinking Spurs will lose 3 games in a row to come back 3-1? That's a stretch.

It's not 2-3-2 anymore. The closeout gm 6 will be in Miami

 

[Jonm1010]

I love all the doomsayers in the thread.

How much crow has been served already from people making declarative statements after a loss these playoffs?

This isn't the Pacers the Heat are playing. Pop doesn't play that mental midget shit.

 

[RoKKeR]

Pop's post game pressers are always golden, win or lose.

 

[Tragicomedy]

If they make all 4, they are up 6 with like 4 mins to go. Even splitting the FTs probably allows them to win

The point being they had already missed four before, which held the exact same value in determining the outcome. If they made the earlier ones, it comes out even.

The game is 48 minutes. People are over emphasizing that one particular sequence.

Pop is angry.

 

[Draconian]

Anyone else just not feeling this finals? These games have been close so I should be hype, but this shit feels dry. Two teams fighting for yet another ring. I would probably be all over this if it was like GSW versus the Knicks or some shit. Two thirsty ass squads with a lot of players fighting for their first.

But this shit? Dry as fuck, both teams just pad their already decent storyline if they win. Im ready for the regular season to see who rebuilds whether Rose returns to form and what moves happen in the offseason.

Fuck this shit.

Welcome to the NBA where the same teams are in the finals year after year.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Bosh always makes the big shot to finish these games.

Um...that's why he's called Big Shot Bosh. LOL. PEACE.

 

[BronsonLee]

It's not 2-3-2 anymore. The closeout gm 6 will be in Miami

This shit goes 7, let's be real here
I WANT IT ALL

 

[Kevtones]

Crush on Bosh.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Yyyyyyyyeeeeaaahhh!!!!!!

How about that lebroning now. Man the spurs are so good, what an incredible game. We did what we had to, get 1. Now let's take care of home court.

It's good that the Spurs missed those FTs. I rep the Heat, but I don't do no stanning for LeBron.

MJ > LeBron

 

[Cloudy]

Anytime Bron is on Parker, Manu has to have the ball. Spurs should know this by now

 

[RBelong2Us]

Tards talking about Ginobili....uh where was Leonard and Green?

Smh at blaming ginobili.

 

[Tragicomedy]

It's good that the Spurs missed those FTs. I rep the Heat, but I don't do no stanning for LeBron.

Smart man.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

It's not 2-3-2 anymore. The closeout gm 6 will be in Miami

I'm aware. Nothing says they can't close out on the road and if it has to go seven then so be it.

 

[Cloudy]

Spurs aren't winning in Miami

[MiamiWesker]

MJ > LeBron

Not sure why this is relevant. Jordan is the greatest of all time.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Spurs aren't winning in Miami

So you're saying including this game they're gonna lose 3 straight? Give them some credit.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Pop's post game pressers are always golden, win or lose.

Yes. Even better when reporters from the mothership is asking him questions...lol

 

[effzee]

Probably not the best approach to take as a Heat fan when discussing ref fuckery.

9 times out of 10 you all are on the winning end of that. Tonight was no exception.

But this game was ultimately lost by the Spurs choking.

You guys sure are selective.

Game 1 Heat barely went to the line nothing about refs is mentioned. They go full attack mode tonight and drive and get calls. Spurs still get plenty of calls and free throws but you bitch about the refs.

In the Pacers series 2-3 games the Pacers went to the FT line more. But of course if in any 1 game if the Heat get a call in their favor it's a conspiracy.

When will you guys stop crying about the refs? Usually the superstar gets the call. Also the team that is more aggressive and drives to the rim. That was all Miami tonight.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Not sure why this is relevant. Jordan is the greatest of all time.

Not to our fellow Heater MVP lol.

 

[Cipherr]

Welcome to the NBA where the same teams are in the finals year after year.

Its never bothered me much before. Just now.

This is just a preview of next year's Finals. Deal wit it. PEACE.

I love the Heat, but if these two teams play each other again next year in the finals I will fucking kill myself.

 

[Dr.Acula]

The point being they had already missed four before, which held the exact same value in determining the outcome. If they made the earlier ones, it comes out even.

Those four free-throws were late, it would have changed how the teams played. That was a huge deal. Not to mention the Heat hitting that 3 right after.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

This shit goes 7, let's be real here
I WANT IT ALL

It may not. Bron may put a lot of pressure on these guys the next two games. I don't like dismissing pop but damn, it could turn bad. And Wade is due.

 

[effzee]

Bosh was pretty critical this game. I'm starting to think he's the 2nd best player on the team now.

When Bron was out the team looked terrible except for Bosh.

Bosh has been their 2nd best for over a year now. He worked super hard for that 3 point shot. They need to make him the 2nd option.

People really thinking Spurs will lose 3 games in a row to come back 3-1? That's a stretch.

Yeah I don't get it. Spurs will split in Miami.

 

[Spinluck]

So you're saying including this game they're gonna lose 3 straight? Give them some credit.

Lol, sometimes I think some people just started watching basketball this postseason. Come on Cloudy.

Anyway, won't lie, I'm worried. The Spurs really needed this one..

 

[Cloudy]

So you're saying including this game they're gonna lose 3 straight? Give them some credit.

Oh I think it goes 6 with Miami winning.

No one is angry at legitimate calls that get them to the line.

People get tired of the Heat's constant flopping, ref-whining, and bullshit.

How many flops did wade have tonight, 3? Bron had at least 2 obvious ones and then you throw in some of the thuggery they pulled.

All of it makes them a very hard team to like.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Oh I think it goes 6 with Miami winning.

So it's a 2-2 split after 5 then they win game 5 at SA and close out in Miami? I'd give them a better chance of winning the two at home than winning another in SA.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Look at that. Spurs don't cheat by sabotaging the A/C and the Heat win.

Funny how that works, eh?

 

[Kusagari]

Wade is going to show up at some point.

Just can't see the Spurs winning this series.

 

[GamerSoul]

smdh Parker can't make free throws after a nice-ass hit to the ribs. weak-ass stuff bruh. That's the shit I don't like /s

 

[WoodWERD]

Those four free-throws were late, it would have changed how the teams played. That was a huge deal. Not to mention the Heat hitting that 3 right after.

Yeah that was a huge swing. Bleh.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

That's pretty good.

This Luigi meme is just in the sweet spot of still awesome. Once it hits Doge levels of saturation, it will suck.

3-1 coming back from Miami. Spurs win gm 5 and get closed out in 6

 

[Jigolo]

Good game all around. Very close and not much bullshit happened, certainly not to the level of game 1 cramps. Ready for Tuesday. go heat

 

[HeavenlyStriker]

Oh I think it goes 6 with Miami winning.

possibly. though i could also see a split and a game 7 happening.

fucking spurs.

 

[Spinluck]

Bosh has been their 2nd best for over a year now. He worked super hard for that 3 point shot. They need to make him the 2nd option.

I'm kind of surprised at how good of a clutch 3 point shooter he his. Must've really busted his ass to improve at that rate. He also played big this game.

The Heat certainly earned this win. I won't argue that, no excuse.

And Spurs don't or didn't flop? They didn't whine after calls or non calls?

It's ok you don't like them or root for them but it's all around man. You just notice it more cause you don't like them.

What great games by Lebron, Bosh, Rashard, and Birdman with 9 rebounds. Wade needs to show up big time.

 

[RockTurtle]

So what did we learn today SPURS-gaf?

you don't insult Lebron, cause he will make you pay next game.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

3-1 coming back from Miami. Spurs win gm 5 and get closed out in 6

But including tonight's game that would mean 3 Spurs losses in a row. They would have to collapse pretty hard for that to happen.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

LOL @ Konex trying the reverse jinx.

Dude, it never works.

 

[Kevtones]

holy shit I just saw Wade's acting - it totally reminded of that Banderas.gif





fitting that it happened in the face of Manu

 

[BronsonLee]

It's ok you don't like them or root for them but it's all around man. You just notice it more cause you don't like them.

Spurs don't get scrutinized for it as much as Miami does, though I wonder how much of that is because due to the Heat's District 5-esque level of flopping or just the fact that when the Heat get fouled, it's always a super slow-mo replay

So what did we learn today SPURS-gaf?

you don't insult Lebron, cause he will make you pay next game.

Pretty much. He went ham.

LOL @ Konex trying the reverse jinx.

Dude, it never works.

KONEX STOP WE WANT A FAIR FINALS

 

[Error]

As soon as Leonard went into foul trouble and Pop was forced to switch Diaw for Leonard to guard Lebron, Lebron went off and pretty much went into god mode. Leonard has to be careful about getting into foul trouble, I think he does a pretty good job guarding LeBron all things considered.

The spurs don't flop??

 

[perfectchaos007]

Yeah I don't see the Heat losing at home in Miami. Heat will win game 3 and 4. SA will take game 5, but the Heat will close out the series in Miami in game 6. Hope I'm wrong though. Spurs NEED to win one of the next 2 games to have a shot

 

[Kanguro]

LMAO at Parker missing two FTs after getting nudged in the ribs. Jordan would have made the first, missed the second on purpose and then dunked the ball off the rebound.

 

[Kevtones]

Manu is a soccer player. He's the floppiest flopper that ever flopped.


Please no whining.




That said, I do like his shirt.

 

[effzee]

Well played. You forget he would have scored 60 points.

WWJD?

They flop, but not like the Heat do. Not to that level and not so ridiculously obvious and constant(now if they still had Bowen the Spurs would still be my least favorite team - such a thug piece of shit) and they don't get away with it as much. No team does honestly.

They whine more then any team I've seen and I am a Pelicans fan that had CP3 and David West for most of their careers.

It's more striking that people like you are so blind to your own team that you legitimately don't understand why so many have issues with your team.
